"Far-right Polish MP uses fire extinguisher to put out Hanukah candles
Rabbi says antisemitic attack, hours after Donald Tusk vowed to reform Poland, galvanised support for Jewish community
A far-right Polish MP has extinguished candles on a menorah lit for Hanukah in Poland’s parliament, disrupting proceedings before a vote of confidence in the new government.
Grzegorz Braun, a fringe far-right MP, was shown on television spraying the menorah with a fire extinguisher. Haze filled the area. The parliament took a break in proceedings to deal with the incident and Braun was suspended for the rest of the day.
Donald Tusk, whose new government won a vote of confidence on Tuesday, had earlier delivered a keynote speech to parliament outlining his plans for office, described the incident as “a disgrace”.
“This is unacceptable. This can’t happen again,” he said."
